Amniotic Fluid Embolism Health Feed

Asked for female, 36 years old from Ahmedabad

I am 18 weeks pregnant women. Last week I had cervix cerclage due to amniotic fluid leakage. My doctor advised to take rest for 3-4 days. Now after 7 days of cerclage today I feel the water leaking. Is it possible to leak amniotic fluid after taking stitches.

Cervical encirclage is done in cases of short incompetent cervix that is weak to withhold baby. Little amount of leak is common. For that complete bed rest, antibiotics to prevent infection in baby, drink lots of fluid, have repeat scan to see liqour of baby. If you are leaking heavily, that means your membrane got ruptured. Connect your gynecologist immediately in that case.
Have a healthy pregnancy.

Hello,
Amniotic fluid leak at 25 weeks is not healthy at all and you must visit your doctor soon,as the leak once started cannot be stopped and pretern delivery shall be inevitable.

Not possible that there was no amniotic fluid and a healthy baby was delivered through operation, the fluid must have got mixed with blood. Remember that while doing a surgery, 2 things are handy- a suction machine to drain out the fluids accumulated while doing the surgery & caurtery machine to keep burning tiny blood vessels while cuts are made to prevent blood loss.

Its fine but on lesser side. Try taking juices daily especially fruit juices. Take juice if 1 tender coconut daily without gap. Increase intake of lemons.

15 cm is the cut off for considering as excess fluid. So in your situation, although the fluid is slightly on the higher side, it is really not excess. If the pregnancy is about 32-36 weeks, then this fluid volume is normal. As long you don't have diabetes (sugar) problem and the baby's growth is fine, them is nothing to worry.

Please note that as WBC is on higher side she might be having some urinary tract infection, which if acceralated might affect the amniotic fluid index. Please see a gynaecologist.

The amniotic fluid is very low.Labour induction may be advised.Since 36 th week is running now the baby will be mature.Or the doctor may advise you to get admitted and monitor the baby s heart beat and other things continuously and any time if she feels the baby is at risk either induction of labour or Caesarian will be advised as the situation warrants.

There are less chances of it will increase... But try taking more fluid... And take watery fruits etc...

But keep in touch with your doctor regularly.

Asked for Male, 24 years old from Delhi

My ultrasound report shows less AFI-8, mild oligomniosis. I am right now on my 36th week of pregnancy. Is low amniotic fluid going to have a birth defect and kidney problem and all that in foods or is it just normal?

Low amniotic fluid at 36 weeks means repeated foetal well being studies are required and depending on result some times decision to induce labour may be taken.
